With these strange times upon us nothing seems very certain at the moment. Some people are finding they are busier at work, if they work in one of the shops that is open for example and others may be worried if they have a job to go back to. It is not an ideal time to be looking for work but you may have no choice too if the business you worked for is no longer trading.

There are a number of industries which are recruiting at the moment, some of which are in the retail sector, some in the cleaning industry and some in the manufacturing industry for example.

You will need to be quick if you are looking for work as there are a lot of people who are in the same situation. If you leave it too long there may be even more people out of work so competition levels will be even higher and therefore you will be competing against more people for the position.

Make sure that you have your CV ready and a sample cover letter than you can adapt so you are ready to apply for the vacancy as soon as it becomes available.
